HTC tries to recreate Facebook in real life.. (uh?)

Well this is a madcap social media scheme. To celebrate the launch of the HTC Wildfire – a phone geared towards social networkers – HTC are trying to recreate Facebook in real life by bringing all of one person’s friends together in one place.

They are putting out a request on their Facebook page for people to come up with bright ideas for what they would do if all their Facebook friends were gathered together.

I can only imagine what a logistical nightmare that will be. And it sort of reminds us why the internet was invented – so we didn’t have to be all physically in the same place to communicate with each other. Anyway, err, if you’re interested, it’s on their Facebook page.

They say: “Visitors to the HTC UK Facebook page will be asked the following question: “If you could gather all of your friends on Facebook together in the same place for a day – what would you do?” The most inspiring entry will be chosen by a panel of HTC representatives and the dream will be made a reality!”
